Numbers 14:13-39

131But MosesH4872 saidH559 to the LordH3068, “Then the EgyptiansH4714 will hearH8085 of it, for by Your strengthH3581 You broughtH5927 up thisH2088 peopleH5971 from their midstH7130, 14and they will tellH559 it to the inhabitantsH3427 of thisH2088 landH776. They have heardH8085 that You, O LordH3068, are in the midstH7130 of thisH2088 peopleH5971, for 2You, O LordH3068, are seenH7200 eyeH5869 to eyeH5869, while Your cloudH6051 standsH5975 overH5921 them; and You goH1980 beforeH6440 them in a pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 by dayH3119 and in a pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915. 15Now if You slayH5221 thisH2088 peopleH5971 as oneH259 manH376, 3then the nationsH1471 whoH834 have heardH8085 of Your fameH8088 will 4sayH559, 16‘BecauseH4480 the LordH3068 5couldH3201 not bringH935 thisH2088 peopleH5971 into the landH776 whichH834 He promisedH7650 them by oathH7650, therefore He slaughteredH7819 them in the wildernessH4057.’ 17But nowH6258, I prayH4994, let the powerH3581 of the LordH136 be greatH1431, justH3512 as You have 6declaredH1696H559, 18‘7The LordH3068 is slowH750 to angerH639 and abundantH7227 in lovingkindnessH2617, forgivingH5375 iniquityH5771 and transgressionH6588; but 8He will by noH3808 meansH5352 clearH5352 the guilty, 9visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 on the childrenH1121 10to the thirdH8029 and the fourthH7256 generations.’ 1911PardonH5545, I prayH4994, the iniquityH5771 of thisH2088 peopleH5971 according to the greatnessH1433 of Your lovingkindnessH2617, justH3512 as You also have forgivenH5375 thisH2088 peopleH5971, from EgyptH4714 even untilH5704 nowH2008.”

20So the LordH3068 saidH559, “12I have pardonedH5545 them according to your wordH1697; 21but indeedH199, 13as I liveH2416, 1415allH3605 the earthH776 will be filledH4390 with the gloryH3519 of the LordH3068. 22SurelyH3588 16allH3605 the menH376 who have seenH7200 My gloryH3519 and My signsH226 whichH834 I performedH6213 in EgyptH4714 and in the wildernessH4057, yet 17have putH5254 Me to the testH5254 theseH2088 tenH6235 timesH6471 and have not listenedH8085 to My voiceH6963, 2318shall by noH518 meansH518 seeH7200 the landH776 whichH834 I sworeH7650 to their fathersH1, norH3808 shall anyH3605 of those who spurnedH5006 Me seeH7200 it. 24But My servantH5650 CalebH3612, 19becauseH6118 he hasH5973 hadH1961 a differentH312 spiritH7307 and has followedH310 Me fullyH4390, 2021I will bringH935 into the landH776 22whichH834 he enteredH935, and his 23descendantsH2233 shall takeH3423 possessionH3423 of it. 2524Now the AmalekitesH6003 and the CanaanitesH3669 liveH3427 in the valleysH6010; turnH6437 tomorrowH4279 and setH5265 out to the wildernessH4057 by the wayH1870 of the 25RedH5488H3220 SeaH3220.”

26The LordH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872 and AaronH175, sayingH559, 27“HowH4970 longH5704H4970 shall I bear with thisH2088 evilH7451 congregationH5712 whoH834 are 26grumblingH3885 againstH5921 Me? I have heardH8085 the complaintsH8519 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, whichH834 they are 27makingH3885 againstH5921 Me. 28SayH559 to them, ‘28As I liveH2416,’ saysH5002 the LordH3068, ‘justH3512 as 29you have spokenH1696 in My hearingH241, soH3651 I will surely doH6213 to you; 2930your corpsesH6297 will fallH5307 in thisH2088 wildernessH4057, even allH3605 31your 32numberedH6485 men, according to your completeH3605 numberH4557 from twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605, whoH834 have grumbledH3885 againstH5921 Me. 30SurelyH518 you shall not comeH935 into the landH776 in whichH834 I 33sworeH5375H3027 to settleH7931 you, 34exceptH3588H518 CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 and JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126. 3135Your childrenH2945, however, whomH834 you saidH559 would becomeH1961 a preyH957--I will bringH935 them in, and they will knowH3045 the landH776 whichH834 you have rejectedH3988. 3236But as for you, your corpsesH6297 will fallH5307 in thisH2088 wildernessH4057. 33Your sonsH1121 shall be shepherdsH7462 for 37fortyH705 yearsH8141 in the wildernessH4057, and they will 38sufferH5375 for your 39unfaithfulnessH2184, untilH5704 your corpsesH6297 40lieH8552 in the wildernessH4057. 34According to the 41numberH4557 of daysH3117 whichH834 you spiedH8446 out the landH776, fortyH705 daysH3117, for everyH3117 dayH3117 you shall bearH5375 your 42guiltH5771 a yearH8141, even fortyH705 yearsH8141, and you will knowH3045 My oppositionH8569. 3543I, the LordH3068, have spokenH1696, surelyH518H3808 thisH2088 I will doH6213 to allH3605 thisH2088 evilH7451 congregationH5712 who are gatheredH3259 together againstH5921 Me. In thisH2088 wildernessH4057 they shall be destroyedH8552, and thereH8033 they will dieH4191.’”

3644As for the menH376 whomH834 MosesH4872 sentH7971 to spyH8446 out the landH776 and who returnedH7725 and made allH3605 the congregationH5712 grumbleH3885 againstH5921 him by bringingH3318 out a badH1681 reportH1681 concerningH5921 the landH776, 37even 45those menH376 who broughtH3318 out the very badH1681H7451 reportH1681 of the landH776 diedH4191 by a 46plagueH4046 beforeH6440 the LordH3068. 38But JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126 and CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 remainedH2421 aliveH2421 out of thoseH1992 menH376 who wentH1980 to spyH8446 out the landH776.

39When MosesH4872 spokeH1696 47theseH428 wordsH1697 to allH3605 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, 48the peopleH5971 mournedH56 greatlyH3966.
